A couple of us was anxious about the ride, but Chris made sure that we were at ease and comfortable and ensured us of our safety. I highly recommend Pangaea for your next raft adventure. read less

It would even be better if lunch could be provided even with a bit extra cost. The afternoon trip can be extended a bit as well, 40 min kayaking after lunch is a bit less. read less

We started by getting fitted with gear and then boarded a boat with our kayaks attached to the top. Along the way we saw otters and seals. We landed at a small beach and started our paddle. We learned about the glacier and how to paddle. The water was calm, so it was not difficult. We had lunch right by th glacier. Hot chocolate, tea and snacks were provided. After the tide started coming in quick Meridith rescued a wayward kayak and we all got back into make the trip back. We went through one section, where the current was faster and it was fun. Highly recommend this trip. read less

The sights were amazing and the guides incredibly competent and supportive. Captain Tim, Seth, and Dan were all very knowledgeable, friendly, and conversational. They sought out wildlife and made sure to pause and let us enjoy otters, eagles, and harbor seals. We floated amongst the icebergs and got a close up and personal view of the glacier. We felt very safe in their charge. I would recommend this experience to anyone...both visitors and residents of our great state of Alaska. Thank you Pangaea. read less

We stopped by the shop the morning before and got the skinny on what to expect the next day. Later that evening my husband started having chest pains and ended up in the hospital. I called Pangaea around midnight and left a message that we would not be keeping our rez for the next morning. After spending the night in the hospital we got a call from a staffer at Pangaea the following morning and she very kindly told me that due to our situation she would not charge us for the missed trip. That's a class act in my book. I did not expect this as the fine print was clear that you would be billed for any cancellations. Thanks Pangaea! read less

It was our first time doing Kayaking, and 6 of us were all rookies. Before we booked the tour, we had a lot of concerns. The tour went very well it was well organized. Our guide Ben was from Minnesota, who went to Alaska in early May to get some company training. He was in charge of 8 people on 4 kayaks. Ben was very knowledgeable. We liked him very much. We had a memorable experience especially for our kids. read less

We weighted the options and the were able to squeeze us on to a guided trip in Shoup Bay. Our guides were fabulous and friendly and helpful and a joy to paddle with. The lunch spot was incredible and the bird cliffs were fun to see. I can't wait to return for another trip!! read less

Sam (guide) took a self-deprecating comical approach to teaching us about safety and what we should expect on our journey. Along the way on our ride out he and Tim (captain and owner) shared facts about Valdez and the Columbia glacier. We arrived and hopped in our boats and paddled around to get our sea legs. Sam then led us through a couple of spots on our way to lunch. Post-lunch we continued our journey into the ice field. Sam's caring demeanor and extensive outdoor experience (NOLS graduate) ensured that our family had a great time. We could have spent a bit more time in the large ice field, but afterwards we all realized how unsafe that zone is. We would definitely return for another tour! read less

We had the g amphitheater all to ourselves. All of the guides were great, but Dan was fantastic. He shared a kayak with our six year old and spent most of the trip answering all of his questions. Highly recommend. Please go before the glacier recedes up on to the land. Won’t be too much longer 🙁 read less
